@Annina ******

do you have an actual visa or are you here on a visa exempt stamp? It makes a difference as where you go for the extension.

@Brandon ***********

Bangkok still does.

- information for anyone who’s curious.

@Peter *******

open your eyes and read the thread. I’ve posted a lot more information to back up my claims. 🙄

@Graeme ******

not stock market, I don’t have the balls to mess around in that field as I don’t have any knowledge.

I have it in a TD Comfort Growth Portfolio. It’s not in the upper high risk/reward, it’s more middle upper risk category. Before I came to Thailand I went to my personal banker at TD and gave him 100k to invest and this is where he put it. So far I’m happy with the results. In another 2 years I’ll drop another 100k in there and hope for the best. I’ve pulled out about 30k in the past year or so and it hasn’t put any dent into it. The unrealized gains have been good, except when Trump first came back into office. But that was only a small dip then and it has bounced back even stronger now.

@Graeme ******

my money isn’t in any savings or chequing account. It’s in an investing account where I’ve made out great the past couple of years. I’m not going to make anything even remotely close in any Thai bank.

@Darren *****

sure. Check your PM.

@Graham *****

I was just at immigration on Thursday and got a new 60 day family extension. No questions asked.

@Graham *****

no non-o’s. 60 day exempt + 30 day extension + 60 day family extension. So far it has worked for three years. I’ve been using a border bounce company every 5 months.

@Graham *****

yeah I know. I went to the embassy in May to get my new passport and seen the sign stating so. I much prefer not having to deal with all that BS. I’ve made out good thus far. Sure, I have to do a border bounce every 5 months but that doesn’t bother me.

@Randy ******

why not use a fast track service? If you’re trying to enter multiple times in a short period, you’re going to run into problems.
